This image is from roughly three decades ago, so it makes sense that coach Lynn has changed a bit since then The picture is certainly a representation of the time, sporting the Fresh Prince-esque hi-top fade.

Lynn's best season at Texas Tech came in his junior year, when he totaled 1,034 yards and nine touchdowns. His senior season, unfortunately, was cut short by a knee injury, which led to Lynn going undrafted in the 1992 NFL Draft.
